Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 9:05 amNot Far Bald. Further north.
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 9:06 amNo, I got that tangled up. Tabletop?
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 9:10 amFurther north than Tabletop. This peak is rarely climbed.

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 11:52 amNo but getting closer.
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 12:09 pmHowells Peak?
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 12:22 pmNot Howells. This is a few hundred meters higher.
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 1:37 pmIt's the right shape for Blackfellows Hill but I think that's too low. Nattung?
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 2:00 pmIt’s not Blackfellows or Nattung.
Your guesses are on the correct side of the snowy mountains highway. The peak I’m looking at is a little off the beaten path.

Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 3:40 pmCan't find any ~1700m high points in my search range. So might still be too low, but I'll try Tom O'Rourkes Peak.
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 4:13 pmNot Tom O’Rourkes.
There is a whole other section of the park that you are all missing. Often gets forgotten about.

Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 5:14 pmBogong Peaks did occur to me earlier but the single peak above a plain in the photo doesn't really lend itself to that area?
Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 5:18 pmBogong Peaks is correct. Good job.
Great views up there but a horrendous, scrubby climb
It was taken from the Mosquito Creek FT just past Hainsworth hut.

Wow, that's over 16 km from Hainsworth hut. I looked at Bogong Peaks earlier but dismissed it as too far. Photo looks much closer.Re: Game: Where-is-it (Aussie)
Posted: Wed 11 Aug, 2021 6:55 pmI was pretty heavily zoomed in. A bit of compression going on.

Yes I thought yo must have been on a cherry picker at Burleigh Heads by how close the Island looked!!!
Old favourite dive spot of mine when I taught diving up that way late 80's.
This one's from Victoria.
A very wet and miserable day. 4 of us trying to dry out our gear at which location.
